One thing’s for sure, the attacks of the clones are here, and they’re here to stay. Sharp is the latest to join the battle. I give you the Sharp EM ONE. This week, we’re putting the EM ONE up against Samsung’s F520. Vote for your favorite iPhone clone.

 Samsung F520 vs. EM MOBILE EM ONE

Physically, both feature a similar dual slider keyboard. Sliding down the keyboard on the F520 reveals only the keyboard itself. While the EM ONE features not only the keyboard but also a joystick, D-PAD and a 1.3-megapixel camera. The EM ONE sports a large 4.1-inch, 800x480 screen; and F520 3-inch, 480x272. It’s possible that F520 features gestures similar to the iPhone.


The EM ONE runs Windows Mobile 5, while the F520 runs an unknown OS with a Flash UI.

I don’t know what’s powering the F520, but EM ONE’s running a speedy 520MHz PXA CPU, combined with NVidia’s GoForce TM550 chipset.


I realize these are just a few core features, but base on sex appeal and what you see here, which one is the best contender for the iPhone?

The winner of this battle will take on the Meizu MiniOne next Monday!
